Space shortage prompts staggered schedule at Midview High
Midview High School plans a staggered 1966-67 schedule to ease crowding as enrollment rises by about 100 students. Juniors and seniors would start at 7 30 am and end at 2 pm while freshmen and sophomores begin at 10 30 am and finish at 5 pm, with a six period day and 30 minute lunch. The plan delays long term relief until a 2 953 mill levy funds a new junior high, potentially ready in September 1968.
